Company Coming!

Deanna Steinle

When I posted this week about my blog coming back, I was super excited and ready to get started. But I completely forgot company was coming and I was nowhere near ready to have people over. It was cleaning, cleaning and more cleaning. And where in the world do all the socks go? Seriously, that has to be the most frustrating thing about being married. The missing sock!

But anyway, rant over. I began cleaning, grocery shopping and getting so excited about our special guest, I forgot to write the other day. Sorry! We had an amazing time with him and I learned so much about opera. Oh, did I mention he is a trained opera singer? WOW!  I did film while he sang at church and I am in the process of editing and getting that ready for all of you. I hope you love it as much as we did. It might take me a day or two to get  uploaded, but a sneak peek will be posted here. So keep checking!

Here is the sneak peek link! https://youtu.be/vmmE_zb4_rE 

You can also follow me on twitter and Facebook to get updates when the editing is complete. Make sure to leave me comments below! I love responding to comments and questions. It is my favorite!

Happy Sunday!

#Live2Inspire1 Is Back!

Deanna Steinle

Since my last post of getting married, my world drastically changed. This last year and a half has been the most exciting, stressful, fun-loved, anxious and completely AWESOME time of my life. And to be 100% honest, I forgot that I had started a blog until I began to feel like I had made big strides past my surgery. “Surgery?”,  you might ask. Well, if you follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter… (and if you don’t, why not?!) then you know I had my tonsils out last April; April 2014. Yes, just a short few months after I got married in October of 2013. Since then, it has been recovering, working, learning, lose of loved ones, becoming a Pastor’s wife, sister’s wedding, becoming a business owner and braces! Teeth braces that is….

With all the best of intentions, I began this blog to document and share my adventures as a newly married woman. It could be anything from advice, cooking, Pastor’s wife experiences, young professional inspiration, struggles of a small business, Aspiring American Sign Language Interpreters, Working with the Deaf Community, marketing & advertising mistakes and overall living to inspire one person in whatever way God had planned for me. Now that things have started to slow down, I want to bring this blog back to life! Please share, comment, follow and join me on this wonderful road ahead. Tomorrow, I will start filling you in on exactly “what” has been going on since my last post. See you then!

Spring Has Sprung!

Deanna Steinle

Spring has sprung! And I for one could not be more excited. For those of us who are active people, winter can be extremely hard for us. Cold weather, less sunshine, going stir crazy inside the house, the list goes on and on. Not only does it affect us physically but also emotionally.

Our energy gets bottled up and we do not have any to release it. Think of it as a dropping a mentos mint into a coke bottle. The majority of us know the outcome to this…… It will eventually expload! Well, the workout people of the world are about the same way. The smallest of things will start to drive us crazy even when we do not realize it. That is when our loved ones step in. They shake the head at us, nod and shove us out the door. They make us run, swim, bike, walk, whatever the case may be. Because they know ultimately, it is best for all parties involved.

But now, no more cold weather, maybe some rain and racing season has started! The next few post will be focused on physical strength and mental strength to build back up our endurance for those of us, for whatever reason, have not been able to run lately. Make a few bench mark goals and plan the first races of the season.

Lace up your running shoes and lets go!

Lost Control?

Deanna Steinle

Many times in our lives we catch ourselves asking the question: “Why is this happening to me?”

As a person who very much likes things to be a certain way, done in a certain order, my reaction to this question is more important than the answer itself.

First, take a deep breath and realize the World is not falling apart and there is a limitless list of things you have to be grateful for. Find the smiles that bring happiness into your life and surround yourself with them.

Second, if you feel like you are loosing control, remember the things you can control. You can control when you go to sleep. This will help with the exhausted/ running out of steam feeling. You can control what you eat. The right foods will give you energy and give you the ability to get through your day without the fatigue from “over-carbing” .

Last item for today, give yourself a goal for the week. This can be physical workout goal, house project, anything you can think of can be a goal. Make the goal small, obtainable and not over baring. By doing this, you have given your mind the ability to focus its energy on something else. Your mind will already be active with worry with whatever situation you are dealing with. However, with these small goals, you can focus that energy into something that gives you a sense of accomplishment. It is rewarding, it will allow you to rest easier at night, and most importantly you have set yourself up emotionally to regain a sense of control when all else seems to be falling apart.

Your Bible verse for today:
And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. (Romans 5:3-5 KJV)
